Have you heard the one about what happens when 700+ Kiwis go skinny dipping together?

It's not the set-up for a joke. It's a (unofficial) world record, set by New Zealand radio station, The Edge, on New Year's Eve. The previous record was set by 729 skinny dippers in Spain and, though they hoped to get over 1,000 people, The Edge still managed to break the record with 745 nudie swimmers.

"If you've ever wanted to skinny dip then this is the best opportunity to give it a go," The Edge said before the event. "There's going to be plenty of bare flesh to blend in to. Like they say if you've seen one you've seen them all."

Prior to this latest attempt, 729 skinny dippers set ‪the current official Guinness World Record at Playa El Playazo beach in Spain on July 21, 2013. This was only a few months after Gisborne, N.Z. set a new record with 506 dippers.

Apparently it's a popular record to break.

The Edge is waiting to hear from Guinness officials if the prestigious honor will officially return to Gisborne. The spectacle was also part of New Zealand's Rhythm and Vines Summer Festival.

"The team at The Edge are so excited to have finally broken the record for the largest skinny dip! I couldn't believe there were so many people willing to get their kit off," Dena Roberts of The Edge exclaimed.

"The image of 745 naked people in the ocean is something I definitely won't be forgetting for a while."

We won't either! Look at all those pale butts!
